I'm looking for something like the special-display function, but with a twist. I would like to dedicate a frame to a *list* of buffers (preferably defined with a regexp), such that the frame can only display those buffers. An example would be a gnus-only frame, where it could display all gnus buffers within it (and bbdb and ispell), but not be able to switch to a java file. Does such a creature exist? Thanks!
Does dframe.el provide the functionality you want? It's distributed with speedbar at http://cedet.sourceforge.net/speedbar.shtml
What a great idea! I wonder if you could develop a framework based on advising switch-to-buffer? Before jumping in to this, I'd wait to seeif the gurus know of an easier way.I'd stay away from switch-to-buffer, personally. Instead, I'd start with display-buffer-function.
And set a user-defined frame parameter to the list of buffers the frame may display? -- Kevin Rodgers <kevinr@ihs.com>
